Make your phpFox site more secure

This is SHOULD HAVE step to make your site more secure but it requires technical knowledge about the server system. Therefore, please feel free to contact your system admin or hosting provider for help if you are not familiar with server stuff.

You should grant permissions of files and folders to "webserver user" account as below:

When I read this...I see that although PF.Base/file folder is 777 that all folder inside PF.Base/file would be 755 except the cache folder which they indicate should be 777. Is this correct? If not then why point out the cache folder as all would be 777 if you made the main folder 777. Now also the directions indicate that PF.Site/flavors is 777 so does that mean PF.Site is also 777 because I though you can't have more permission in a subfolder than the main folder. Also...not sure how the folder APPS is affected if it does not have 777. This has always been confusing....can't you just provide us a bash script to do it the correct way.
